Abstract

Symphyotrichum subulatum (Michx.) G. L. Nesom (syn. Aster subulatus), an annual herb in the Asteraceae family, is native to North America. Nowadays, it has become an invasive weed in several provinces of China, including Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Sichuan (Li and Xie, 2002). Despite being invasive, this species holds significance in Chinese medicine, where it is used for the external treatment of eczema and swollen sore poison (Hu, 2020). In June 2023, symptoms of powdery mildew were observed in S. subulatum populations in Deyang and Nanchong, Sichuan Province, China. About 32.73% among 55 surveyed S. subulatum plants showed signs of infection. Symptoms initially appeared as small, scattered white powdery patches on the leaves, which enlarged and coalesced over time. Subsequently, hyphal growth forming extensive conidia covered up to 90% of the leaf area on both surfaces (Fig. S1A, B), and the infected leaves withered and fell off (Fig. S1A). A specimen was archived at China West Normal University (SsPM-ZL). Conidiophores were cylindrical and erect, 66.4 to 183.2 µm (avg. 108.2±40.8 μm) in length (n=30) (Fig. S1C). Conidia, produced singly, were ellipsoid-ovoid to nearly cylindrical, measuring 29.5 to 36.7 μm in length (avg. 32.9±2.6 μm) and 16.0 to 19.9 μm in width (avg. 17.4±1.3 μm), lacking distinct fibrosin bodies (n=30) (Fig. S1D). Under a scanning electron microscope, turgid conidia displayed reticulate wrinkles on the surface, with gentle contractions or bulges at both poles (Fig. S1E, F). Based on these characteristics, the powdery mildew fungus was consistent with the genus Golovinomyces (Bradshaw et al. 2022a). To confirm the identity of the causal fungus of specimen (SsPM-ZL), the calmodulin (CAM), RNA polymerase II subunit (RPB2), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), glutamine synthetase (GS), and the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) were amplified using PMCAMF/R, PMRPB2F/R, PMGAPDH1/3R, PMGSF/R, and PM5/ITS4 primers (Bradshaw et al. 2022b), and deposited in GenBank (CAM: OR761878; RPB2: OR761881; GAPDH: OR761879; GS: OR761880; ITS: OR758452). BLAST analysis showed 99 to 100% identity with the sequences of Golovinomyces ambrosiae (FH00941234) for CAM (ON101658, 99.65%), RPB2 (ON119165, 100%), GS (ON075690, 99.78%), and ITS (ON073876, 99.47%). Phylogenetic analysis was performed in MEGAX with maximum likelihood method (Kumar et al. 2016) and clustered SsPM-ZL into the G. ambrosiae clade with a 100% bootstrap support value based on the concatenated sequences of CAM, RPB2, GAPDH, GS and ITS (Fig. S2).

To evaluate pathogenicity, leaves of 3 healthy potted S. subulatum plants (3 leaves per plant) were inoculated by gently pressing them with diseased leaves, while 3 non-contact plants were used as control. Plants in two groups were incubated in separate greenhouses maintained at 27±1°C, with a photoperiod of 14 hours and a relative humidity of 80%. After 7 days, the inoculated plants exhibited symptoms of powdery mildew (Fig. S1H, J), while the control plants remained asymptomatic (Fig. S1G, I). Morphological characteristics of the artificially induced powdery mildew were consistent with those on naturally infected plants. Powdery mildew caused by G. ambrosiae has been reported affecting Helianthus tuberosus (Huang et al. 2017) and Bidens pilosa (Mukhtar et al. 2022) in China.

中国首次报告由 Golovinomyces ambrosiae 在 Symphyotrichum subulatum 上引起的白粉病。
Symphyotrichum subulatum (Michx.) G. L. Nesom (syn. Aster subulatus) 是菊科一年生草本植物,原产于北美洲。如今,它已成为中国江苏、浙江和四川等几个省份的入侵杂草(李和谢,2002)。尽管具有入侵性,但该物种在中药中仍有重要地位,可用于外敷治疗湿疹和肿毒(Hu,2020)。2023 年 6 月,在中国四川省德阳市和南充市的 S. subulatum 种群中观察到白粉病症状。在调查的 55 株 S. subulatum 植物中,约 32.73% 出现了感染迹象。症状最初表现为叶片上散落的白色粉状小斑点,随着时间的推移,斑点逐渐扩大和凝聚。随后,形成大量分生孢子的菌丝生长覆盖了叶片两面 90% 的面积(图 S1A、B),受感染的叶片枯萎并脱落(图 S1A)。一份标本保存在西华师范大学(SsPM-ZL)。分生孢子梗呈圆柱状直立,长 66.4 至 183.2 微米(平均 108.2±40.8 微米)(n=30)(图 S1C)。单生的分生孢子呈椭圆状卵球形至近圆柱形,长 29.5 至 36.7 微米(平均 32.9±2.6 微米),宽 16.0 至 19.9 微米(平均 17.4±1.3 微米),缺乏明显的纤维素体(n=30)(图 S1D)。在扫描电子显微镜下,膨大的分生孢子表面呈现网状皱纹,两极有平缓的收缩或隆起(图 S1E、F)。根据这些特征,白粉病真菌与 Golovinomyces 属一致(Bradshaw 等人,2022a)。为确认标本(SsPM-ZL)的病原真菌身份,钙调蛋白(CAM)、RNA 聚合酶 II 亚基(RPB2)、甘油醛-3-磷酸脱氢酶(GAPDH)使用 PMCAMF/R、PMRPB2F/R、PMGAPDH1/3R、PMGSF/R 和 PM5/ITS4 引物(Bradshaw et al.2022b),并存入 GenBank(CAM:OR761878;RPB2:OR761881;GAPDH:OR761879;GS:OR761880;ITS:OR758452)。BLAST 分析表明,CAM(ON101658,99.65%)、RPB2(ON119165,100%)、GS(ON075690,99.78%)和 ITS(ON073876,99.47%)与 Golovinomyces ambrosiae(FH00941234)的序列具有 99 至 100%的一致性。利用最大似然法(Kumar 等,2016 年)在 MEGAX 中进行了系统发育分析,并根据 CAM、RPB2、GAPDH、GS 和 ITS 的连接序列将 SsPM-ZL 聚类到 G. ambrosiae 支系中,自举支持值为 100%(图 S2)。结合形态学和系统发生学分析,SsPM-ZL 被确定为伏洛温霉菌。为了评估致病性,将 3 株健康的盆栽 S. subulatum(每株 3 片叶)的叶片与病叶轻轻按压后接种,同时用 3 株未接触的植株作为对照。两组植物分别放在温度为 27±1°C、光周期为 14 小时、相对湿度为 80% 的温室中培养。7 天后,接种植株出现白粉病症状(图 S1H、J),而对照植株仍无症状(图 S1G、I)。人工诱导的白粉病的形态特征与自然感染植株一致。在中国,有报道称由 G. ambrosiae 引起的白粉病影响到 Helianthus tuberosus(Huang 等人,2017 年)和 Bidens pilosa(Mukhtar 等人,2022 年)。据我们所知,这是中国首次报道由 G. ambrosiae 在 S. subulatum 上引起的白粉病。我们的发现将为今后白粉病的诊断和潜在防治策略的开发提供基础知识。
